What is AES (Advanced Encryption Standard) Encryption?
AES is a symmetric type of encryption, as it uses the same key to both encrypt and decrypt data.
Encryption is the process of converting normal message (plaintext) into meaningless message (Ciphertext). Whereas Decryption is the process of converting meaningless message (Ciphertext) into its original form (Plaintext).
STEPS :
1. Open browser and search AES encryption online (OR) open the website "https://www.devglan.com/online-tools/aes-encryption-decryption"
2. You can view the page as shown below.
3. Enter any sample text to encrypt the text, set any secret key for 16 upto digits. Now click encrypt, you can see the AES encrypts data in the output box.
4. Now copy the encrypted data and paste it in the box "enter the data to be decrypted"
Also copy, paste the secret key and click on the decrypt. You can see the original plain text.
5. Now set the output text format to Base64 and decrypt the data. Copy the decrypted text and move to Base64 decoder website to get the plain text without using secret key.
